Evolved B node 304 can have a plurality of antennas of supporting the MIMO technology.The use of MIMO technology makes that evolved B node 304 can utilize that the spatial domain comes that support space is multiplexing, beam shaping and transmit diversity.
Spatial reuse can be used on same frequency, transmit simultaneously different data streams.These data flow can be transmitted to single UE 306 to improve data transfer rate or to send a plurality of UE 306 to improve overall system capacity.This is through each data flow of spatial pre-coding, on down link, transmits each through different transmit antennas then and reach through the stream of spatial pre-coding.Data flow through spatial pre-coding arrives at (all) UE 306 with different spaces signature, and this makes each UE 306 can recover with this UE 306 is these one or more data flow of destination.On up link, the data flow that each UE 306 transmits through spatial pre-coding, this makes evolved B node 304 can identify each source through the data flow of spatial pre-coding.
Spatial reuse generally uses when channel conditions is good.When channel conditions is so not favourable, can use beam shaping that emitted energy is focused on one or more directions.This can reach to launch through a plurality of antennas through the spatial pre-coding data.In order to reach good covering in cellular cell edge, the transmission of single current beam shaping can combine transmit diversity to use.
In following detailed description, will describe aspect Access Network various with reference to the mimo system of on down link, supporting OFDM.OFDM is with the spread spectrum on data-modulated several subcarriers in the OFDM code element.These subcarriers are spaced apart with precise frequency.This provides at interval and makes the receiver can be from " orthogonality " of subcarrier restore data.In time domain, can add guard interval (for example, Cyclic Prefix) with antagonism OFDM inter symbol interference to each OFDM code element.Up link can use the SC-FDMA of DFT expansion ofdm signal form to compensate high peak-to-average power ratio (PARR).
Can use various frame structures to support DL and UL transmission.To provide an example of DL frame structure now with reference to Fig. 4.Yet with comprehensible, the frame structure that is used for any application-specific can be depending on factor and the difference of any number like those skilled in the art.In this example, frame (10ms) is divided into the subframe of 10 equal sizes.Each subframe comprises 2 coherent time slots.
Can use resource grid to represent two time slots, per two time slots comprise a Resource Block.Resource grid is divided into a plurality of resource elements.In LTE, Resource Block in frequency domain, comprise 12 coherent subcarriers and in time domain the situation for normal cyclic prefix in each OFDM code element comprise 7 coherent OFDM code elements, or promptly comprise 84 resource elements.As be designated as R 0And R 1Some resource elements comprise DL reference signal (DL-RS).DL-RS comprises because of the different RS of cellular cell (CRS) (being also referred to as shared RS sometimes) and because of the different RS of UE (UE-RS).UE-RS only transmits on the Resource Block that corresponding physical down link sharing channel (PDSCH) is mapped to.The bit number that is carried by each resource element depends on modulation scheme.Therefore, the Resource Block that UE receives is more and modulation scheme is high more, and then the data transfer rate of UE is high more.
The radio protocol framework depends on that concrete application can take various forms.To provide an example of LTE system now with reference to Fig. 5.Fig. 5 is a concept figure of explaining orally the example of the radio protocol framework that is used for user and chain of command.
Forward Fig. 5 to, the radio protocol framework that is used for UE and evolved B node is shown to have three layers: layer 1, layer and layer 3.Layer 1 is lowermost layer and realizes various physical layer signal processing capacities.Layer 1 will be called as physical layer 506 in this article.Layer 2 (L2 layer) 508 are at physical layer link on physical layer 506 more than 506 and between responsible UE and the evolved B node.
In user plane, L2 layer 508 comprises medium access control (MAC) sublayer 510, radio link control (RLC) sublayer 512 and PDCP (PDCP) 514 sublayers, and they terminate in evolved B node place at network side.Although not shown, UE can have some upper stratas at the L2 layer more than 508, the application layer that is included in that network side terminates in the network layer (for example, IP layer) of PDN Gateway 208 (referring to Fig. 2) and locates terminating at the other end (for example, far-end UE, server etc.) that connects.
PDCP sublayer 514 provide different radio to carry and logic channel between multiplexing.PDCP sublayer 514 also provides the header suppression that upper layer data is divided into groups with minimizing wireless radio transmission expense, through making packet private markization that fail safe is provided and being that UE is provided at the switching support between the evolved B node.RLC sublayer 512 provides the Segmentation and Reassembly of upper layer data grouping, reorders with compensation because the out of order reception that mixed automatic repeat request (HARQ) causes to the re-transmission of lost data packet and to what data were divided into groups.Media access control sublayer 510 provides multiplexing between logic channel and the transmission channel.Media access control sublayer 510 also is responsible between each UE, distributing the various radio resources (for example, Resource Block) in the cellular cell.Media access control sublayer 510 also is responsible for the HARQ operation.
At chain of command, the radio protocol framework that is used for UE and evolved B node is basic identical for physical layer 506 and L2 layer 508, and difference is do not have header suppression function for chain of command.Chain of command also comprises radio resource control (RRC) sublayer 516 in the layer 3.RRC sublayer 516 is responsible for obtaining radio resource (that is radio bearer) and is used the RRC signaling to dispose each lower floor between evolved B node and the UE.

TX processor 616 is realized the various signal processing functions of L1 layer (that is physical layer).These signal processing functions comprise coding and interweave with the forward error correction (FEC) of facilitating UE 650 places and the mapping of carrying out to the signal constellation (in digital modulation) based on various modulation schemes (for example, binary phase shift keying (BPSK), QPSK (QPSK), M phase shift keying (M-PSK), M quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)).Subsequently, the code element through coding and modulation is split into parallel flow.Each stream is mapped to the OFDM subcarrier subsequently, multiplexing and use inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to be grouped together subsequently and carry the physical channel of time domain OFDM stream with generation with reference signal (for example, pilot tone) in time domain and/or frequency domain.This OFDM flows by spatial pre-coding to produce a plurality of spatial flows.Channel estimating from channel estimator 674 can be used to confirm coding and modulation scheme and be used for spatial manipulation.This channel estimating can derive out from the reference signal and/or the channel conditions feedback that are transmitted by UE650.Via the transmitter 618TX that separates each spatial flow is offered different antennas 620 subsequently.Each transmitter 618TX modulates the RF carrier wave for transmission with spatial flow separately.
At UE 650 places, each receiver 654RX receives signal through its antenna 652 separately.Each receiver 654RX recovers the information that is modulated on the RF carrier wave and this information is offered receiver (RX) processor 656.
RX processor 656 is realized the various signal processing functions of L1 layer.656 pairs of these information and executing spatial manipulation of RX processor are any spatial flow of destination to recover with UE 650.If a plurality of spatial flows are the destination with this UE 650, they can be combined into single OFDM stream by RX processor 656 so.RX processor 656 uses fast Fourier transform (FFT) that the OFDM stream is transformed from the time domain to frequency domain subsequently.For each subcarrier of ofdm signal, frequency-region signal comprises the separate OFDM stream.Through confirm the signal constellation point that most possibly transmits by evolved B node 610 recover with each subcarrier of demodulation on code element and reference signal.These soft-decisions can be based on the channel estimating that is calculated by channel estimator 658.These soft-decisions decoded subsequently with deinterleaving to recover data and control signal by the original transmission on physical channel of evolved B node 610.These data and control signal are provided for controller/processor 659 subsequently.
Controller/processor 659 is realized the L2 layer that the previous Fig. 5 of combination describes.In UL, control/processor 659 provide between transmission channel and the logic channel branch with, the reorganization of dividing into groups, private mark decipher, head decompress(ion), control signal handle to recover the upper-layer packet from core net.These upper-layer packet are provided for data trap 662 subsequently, and the latter represents all above protocol layer of L2 layer.Various control signals also can be provided for data trap 662 and handle to carry out L3.The also responsible use of controller/processor 659 is really received (ACK) and/or is negated that true receipts (NACK) agreement is carried out error detection to support the HARQ operation.
In UL, data source 667 is used to upper-layer packet is offered controller/processor 659.Data source 667 is represented all above protocol layers of L2 layer (L2).Be similar to DL that combination undertaken by evolved B node 610 and transmit described functionally, controller/processor 659 is that user plane and chain of command are realized the L2 layer through header suppression, private markization, packet segmentation being provided and reordering and carry out based on the radio resources allocation of being done by evolved B node 610 that multiplexing mode comes between logic channel and transmission channel.Controller/processor 659 also is responsible for the re-transmission of HARQ operation, lost packets and to the signaling of evolved B node 610.
Perhaps feeding back the channel estimating of deriving by channel estimator 658 from the reference signal that is transmitted by evolved B node 610 can be used for selecting the coding and the modulation scheme of just fitting and facilitating spatial manipulation by TX processor 668.To offer different antennas 652 by the spatial flow that TX processor 668 generates via the transmitter 654TX that separates.Each transmitter 654TX modulates the RF carrier wave for transmission with spatial flow separately.
Sentence with the similar mode of the described mode of receiver function that combines UE 650 places at evolved B node 610 and to handle UL transmission.Each receiver 618RX receives signal through its antenna 620 separately.Each receiver 618RX recovers the information that is modulated on the RF carrier wave and this information is offered RX processor 670.RX processor 670 is realized the L1 layer.

Fig. 7 is a diagram 700 of explaining orally the UE 702 that receives a plurality of carrier waves.As shown in Figure 7, UE 702 is from evolved B node 704 reception carrier C1 706 and C2 708.Evolved B node 704 is transmitting PDCCH and PDSCH and on carrier wave C2 708, is transmitting PDSCH on the carrier wave C1 706.In having the LTE-A of multi-carrier operation, the PDCCH portability on the carrier wave C1 706 is about the control information (for example, assigning) of carrier wave C2 708.That is, PDCCH can be from can being that the one-component carrier wave C1 706 of principal component carrier wave (or anchor carrier wave) sends, and carry both appointments to carrier wave C1 706 and carrier wave C2 708.In addition, as shown in Figure 7, UE 702 transmits PUCCH and PUSCH on carrier wave C1 710, and on carrier wave C2 712, transmits PUSCH.Carrier wave C1 710 carries the control information about carrier wave C2 712.Though Fig. 7 illustrates the carrier signalling of striding that is used for UL and DL, striding carrier signalling can be at (wherein the single carrier signaling be on UL) on the DL, and perhaps striding carrier signalling can be at (wherein the single carrier signaling be on DL) on the UL.In addition, be illustrated as 2 though be used for the number of the component carrier of UL and DL, the number of component carrier can be different between UL and DL.
Being intended to difference to the PDCCH of different component carriers can be embedded in the control signaling information field or embed via different Cyclic Redundancy Check scrambling (for example, via the different radio net temporary identifier (RNTI) that is used for different component carriers).The design of the PDCCH search volume that is used for the LTE-A multi-carrier operation below is discussed.The control signaling can be included in wherein that PDCCH and PDSCH are positioned at the same carrier Control signaling on the same components carrier wave, is positioned at PDCCH therein and PDSCH and strides the carrier Control signaling on the different component carriers.For given UE, can expect to receive PDCCH control signaling from one or more component carriers.
Fig. 8 is based on cohesive scale the form that is used for because of the PDCCH candidate's of different search volume of UE and shared search volume number is shown.In LTE the 8th release (Rel-8), each UE is asked to keep watch on shared search volume and because of the different search volume of UE.The PDCCH candidate's that UE has to attempt decoding in subframe maximum number is 6 (4 PDCCH candidate be used for control channel element (CCE) cohesive scale 4 and 2 PDCCH candidates are used for CCE cohesive scale 8) and be 16 (number that is used for the PDCCH candidate of CCE cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8 is respectively 6,6,2 and 2) because of the different search volume of UE in shared search volume.
Each UE is configured to a kind of transmission mode work in seven kinds of transmission modes via the RRC signaling.Under every kind of transmission mode, each UE is asked to keep watch on two different PDCCH sizes.Therefore, the number of false speech detection is: (6+16) * 2=44.That is, each UE is asked to carry out each the decoding candidate and the trial that reach 44 blind decodings most and therefore seek among 22 decoding candidates and uses each the decoding candidate among each these decodings candidate that decode in this two down link control informations (DCI) size.
Each UE can be assigned two or more RNTI (for example, cellular cell RNTI (C-RNTI) and semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) C-RNTI).Confirm that because of the different search volume of UE only (for example, C-RNTI), and the search volume can change with subframe based on a RNTI.More specifically, provide as follows and the corresponding CCE of PDCCH candidate m because of the different search volume of UE with cohesive scale L:

Be used for can overlapping or can not overlap because of the different search volume of UE of different UEs.In addition, be used for can changing and per 10 sub-frame or every 10ms repeat once with subframe because of the different search volume of UE of given UE.In addition, different cohesive scale because of following tree structure in the different search volume of UE, that is, the CCE of cohesive scale L can be always begins with the integral multiple of L.
Potential problems among the LTE-A
No matter carrier wave is distinguished way (promptly; Be embedded in the PDCCH pay(useful) load or via PDCCH CRC scrambling) how; When component carrier carried the PDCCH of PDSCH and/or PUSCH transmission of two or more component carriers of scheduling, the number because of the different PDCCH of UE about given UE that in any given subframe, is used for the component carrier of a link (DL or UL) can be greater than 1.This is different from the 8th release, and in any subframe, every link has one at most because of the different PDCCH's of UE in the 8th release.This therefore on the basis of every UE, created certain " crowded property ".For cohesive scale 1 and 2,6 decoding candidates are at the most arranged, and, 2 decoding candidates are at the most arranged for cohesive scale 4 and 8.Different UE possibly have the search volume of overlapping, and this possibly further limit the decoding candidate's of every cohesive scale number on actual effect.In addition, for example, in any given subframe, be that the number of the carrier wave of given UE scheduling can be at most 5 for a link.For two links (DL+UL), the number of the carrier wave of scheduled can be 10.If the search volume ({ 6 in a search volume and definition and the 8th release is only arranged; 6; 2,2}) identical search volume, the decoding candidate's who then in the 8th release, is provided sum 16 makes and is very difficult to support 10 PDCCH by high efficiency mode; And if this UE search volume overlapping, then use the decoding candidate who is provided to support that 10 PDCCH are unlikely.
The number (that is, different UE can have the different component carriers that carries PDCCH) that different carrier comes balance UE can be striden by this system.Yet this type of PDCCH load balance can not alleviate every UE " crowded property " problem fully.
Fig. 9 A is the diagram of conceptually explaining orally in the CCE space of the one-component carrier wave that reaches given subframe in LTE the 8th release 900 because of the different search volume 902 of UE.As discuss a little earlier, minimize and provide rational dispatching flexibility in order to make the PDCCH blocking probability, need new search volume design.
Be used for the PDCCH search volume design of LTE-A
Fig. 9 B is the exemplary diagram of conceptually explaining orally in the CCE space of the one-component carrier wave that reaches given subframe 950 because of the different search volume 904 of UE.Figure 10 is another exemplary diagram 1000 because of the different search volume of UE of conceptually explaining orally in the CCE space of the one-component carrier wave that reaches given subframe.Shown in Fig. 9 B, in order to solve " crowded property " problem, can increase each number because of the decoding candidate of the different search volume 904 of UE.For example; If decoding candidate's number will be for 6 (such as to cohesive scale 1) usually, the candidate's that then decodes number can be added to 18 to carry the DCI (supposition CC4 or CC5 have with the carrier Control signaling and therefore have their search volume 906,908 respectively) about component carrier CC1, CC2 and CC3.Alternatively or replenish ground, as shown in Figure 10, crowded property problem can be through two or more solve because of the different search volume 1002 of UE for given UE definition.As shown in Figure 10; Have three through component carrier CC1 scheduling because of the different search volume 1002 of UE, wherein each component carrier has a search volume 1002 (supposition CC1 carries the PDCCH about each component carrier among component carrier CC1, CC2 and the CC3).These can separate a side-play amount because of the different search volume of UE, and this side-play amount can be more than or equal to 0 or less than 0, and can be different between each search volume in these search volumes.When side-play amount is 0, because of the different search volume of UE looks as shown in Fig. 9 B.
Because the expection of the number of the component carrier of every UE is what on the basis of every UE, to be disposed, the number of decoding candidate and/or search volume can be different because of particular UE.In addition, if the number of the component carrier of every UE is to dispose semi-staticly, the number of then decode candidate and/or search volume also can dispose semi-staticly.Yet the number of decoding candidate and/or search volume can alternatively be static or dynamically dispose.
PDCCH candidate's number and/or can fit good compromise (that is, have the rational blind Detecting that obtains from the decoding candidate of every search volume total) is provided between the flexibility of the scheduling of UE and the complexity about blind Detecting holding under the situation of the number of the component carrier of considering to be disposed because of the number of the different search volume of UE.
Search volume and/or decoding candidate's direct expansion
Figure 11 A is used to explain orally the diagram 1100 that increases decoding candidate's sum through the number that increases the search volume.Figure 11 B is the diagram 1150 that the number that is used to explain orally the decoding candidate through increasing a search volume increases decoding candidate's sum.As shown in Figure 11 A and Figure 11 B, M be the CC1 number that carries the component carrier of DCI for it (CC1 carry about component carrier CC1, CC2 ..., the DCI of CCM) and K be number because of the different search volume of UE.As M component carrier and K during, suppose N because of the different search volume of UE L, k(M K) is cohesive scale l (1,2,4 or 8) and k the number because of the decoding candidate of the different search volume of UE.Though at k 1≠ k 2Has N when (two different because of the different search volume of UE) L, k1(M, K) ≠ N L, k2(M is possible K), but for oversimplifying, supposes
Figure BPA00001449481200141
In addition, for convenience's sake, the dependence of M and K is dropped, wherein N lIt generally is the number of assembling the decoding candidate of l.
Shown in Figure 11 A, in first design option, can come to increase linearly the number of search volume 1102, and not increase the decoding candidate's of every search volume number based on carrier number M.Thus, K=M and for l={1,2,4,8}, N l=6,6,2,2}.For example; If three component carrier CC1, CC2 and CC3 are dispatched by one-component carrier wave CC1; Then on component carrier CC1, will have three because of the different search volume of UE, these have 6,6,2 and 2 PDCCH decoding candidates because of each search volume in the different search volume of UE respectively for CCE cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8.
Shown in Figure 11 B, in second design option, a search volume 1154 (K=1) is only arranged, but increase the maximum of decoding candidate's number linearly to all cohesive scale: for l={1,2,4,8}, N l={ 6M, 6M, 2M, 2M}.For example, if three component carrier CC1, CC2 and CC3 are arranged, then will have one because of the different search volume of UE, wherein this search volume has 18,18,6 and 6 PDCCH decoding candidates respectively for CCE cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8.
In order to keep the rational blind Detecting sum that obtains from the decoding candidate of every search volume, search volume and/or decoding candidate's sum can be limited to specific number.For example, in a design option, for M >=2, the number of search volume is doubled, but the decoding candidate's of every search volume number remains unchanged.That is, for M >=2, K=2 and for l={1,2,4,8}, Nl={6,6,2,2}.For example; If have three component carrier CC1, CC2 and CC3 to dispatch by one-component carrier wave CC1; Then on this component carrier, will have two because of the different search volume of UE, these have 6,6,2 and 2 PDCCH decoding candidates because of each search volume in the different search volume of UE respectively for CCE cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8.
Alternatively, in another design option,, the decoding candidate's of this search volume number is doubled for M >=2.That is, for M>=2, K=1 and for l={1,2,4,8}, N l=12,12,4,4}.For example; If have three component carrier CC1, CC2 and CC3 to dispatch by one-component carrier wave CC1; Then will have one because of the different search volume of UE, wherein this search volume has 12,12,4 and 4 PDCCH decoding candidates respectively for CCE cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8.
Any combination of above design option is possible.Thus, can increase the number of search volume and every search volume decoding candidate's number.First and second options provide and have held the big flexibility (more total decoding candidate) of fitting scheduling, but have high complexity, because the search volume increases with the number of component carrier with the decoding candidate linearly.Thus, the PDCCH blind Detecting complexity and the false-alarm that obtain of result possibly be concerned issue.Search volume and/or decoding candidate's increase is restricted to particular value (for example, doubling) Xiang Rongshi scheduling less flexibility is provided, but limited the increase of complexity effectively.
Other alternatives of increase about restriction search volume and/or decoding candidate also are possible.For example, design option can be modified, thereby for the various values of M, makes search volume/decoding candidate double, add to three times and/or add to four times.For example, the decoding candidate is multiplicable for M=2 in the search volume, and can add to three times for M>2.The combination of other options or above option is available, the complexity of hold fitting the flexibility of scheduling and causing because of the number of decoding candidate and search volume with balance.
Stride carrier wave PDCCH control signaling for LTE-A; But the complexity of keeping a search volume making decoding candidate's number increase predetermined value (for example, doubling) is kept every search volume similar number simultaneously than the number increase predetermined value that makes the search volume decoding candidate is low.The complexity of last option is lower, because derive because of the different search volume of UE only needs a RNTI, rather than as for one option of back, needing two or more RNTI.Can be based on the initial CCE index of PDCCH that comes to derive randomly because of the different ID of UE, number and/or CCE cohesive scale with the available CCE on the carrier wave of search volume.These design options are applicable to that striding in the carrier wave PDCCH control signaling implicit expression (via the CRC mask) to target carrier indicates both with explicit (via the bit of embedding PDCCH payload).
Can not be that all cohesive scale have identical increase on the decoding number of candidates.For example, can not to utilize that { 12,12,4, (it is respectively about the decoding candidate { 6 of cohesive scale 1,2,4 and 8 to 4}; 6,2, the twice of 2}), utilize decoding candidate { 12 but replace; 12,4,2} is not so that increase about the PDCCH decoding candidate of cohesive scale 8.
In addition, not all carrier wave all needs all PDCCH decoding candidates for each cohesive scale.For example, be used for the principal component carrier wave the PDCCH signaling can 6,6,2, in 2} candidate's first complete set, and for secondary component carrier, the PDCCH signaling can 6,6,2, in another subclass of 2} candidate.These subclass of striding different secondary component carriers can overlap wholly or in part.
For the situation of two or more search volumes, if different RNTI is arranged to different component carriers, then the definite of search volume can be based on different RNTI.Alternatively, the definite of search volume can be based on principal component carrier wave RNTI together with fixing RNTI side-play amount.In one situation of back, effective RNTI of any secondary component carrier is that principal component carrier wave RNTI adds side-play amount, and this side-play amount can be uniqueness for each component carrier, is perhaps shared by a plurality of component carriers.If only a RNTI is arranged to all component carriers, so can be based on the RNTI of this uniqueness together with the search volume of deriving of coming together because of the different skew of component carrier.This (a bit) skew can be hard coded or through layer 3 configuration, for example, stride the carrier wave indication field among the PDCCH based on embedding.
PDCCH search volume expansion based on skew
Can know that from above discussion a decoding candidate that similar number can be arranged because of the different search volume of UE and per minute loading gage ripple can be arranged on all component carriers.In view of these character, another alternative is the PDCCH decoding candidate designs that in LTE-A, has based on skew.
Figure 12 is the diagram of conceptually explaining orally based on the PDCCH decoding candidate designs of skew 1200.The initial CCE index of PDCCH that in subframe n, has the cohesive scale l of a component carrier that is used for UE is represented as CCE N, l, this CCE N, lCan as in the 8th release, derive based on UE RNTI.In addition, M be represented as by 0,1 ..., the number of the component carrier of M-1} ordering, wherein 0 is the anchor carrier wave.Shifted by delta L, mBe the m carrier wave (m=1,2 ..., the skew (is unit with CCE) between the initial CCE index of the cohesive scale l on M-1) and the initial CCE index of anchor carrier wave.Thus, the initial CCE index of m carrier wave is by CCE N, l+ Δ L, mProvide.The blind decoding candidate of the similar number of each cohesive scale can be held with the 8th release in the same.These skews can be selected so that different component carriers has decoding candidate or the quadrature decoder candidate who overlaps wholly or in part.As shown in Figure 12, at l=1, M=3, Δ 1,1=2, and Δ 1,2Under=4 the situation, decoding the candidate partly overlap.Though Figure 12 shows the search volume on each component carrier in these component carriers, the additional components carrier wave (for example, carrier wave 3 and carrier wave 4) with search volume can be arranged.
These skews can disposed on every UE basis or on every cellular cell basis.If it is relevant that these skews are not UE, then this configuration can be on every cellular cell basis.This tree structure can be kept on component carrier as much as possible.If keep, then for any m, the Δ of cohesive scale l L, mThe integral multiple of l always.If do not keep, then for any m, Δ L, mm, and irrelevant with cohesive scale.The skew of striding different carrier can be independently maybe can have certain relation.If independently, then each carrier wave needs its oneself offset collection to be defined.If relevant, then need define fewer purpose skew.A relevant example is a Δ L, m=m Δ L, 1, m>1 (for identical cohesive scale, the m of the skew skew of the first non-anchor carrier wave always of m non-anchor carrier wave doubly).In the special case of per minute loading gage ripple tree structure, for any l, Δ L, mm=m Δ 1, m>1.In this situation, Δ only 1Value need be indicated by evolved B node, and every other skew can implicitly be derived.
For any l and m, Δ L, m=0 egregious cases causes shared between an a plurality of component carriers search volume.Thus, the DCI of any component carrier in can in this search volume of sharing, receiving about these component carriers.These skews can first disposes statically on every UE basis via L3.Alternatively, these skews can static or dynamically configuration.
In first example, Δ L, m=K l* m*l/2, wherein for l={1,2,4,8} has K respectively l=6,6,2, and 2}, and m is the carrier index by other component carriers (that is, except carrier wave 0) of given component carrier scheduling.That is, this side-play amount is size half the of the CCE sum of each cohesive scale.Thus, for the m component carrier, shifted by delta L, mEqual 3m for l=1, equal 6m, equal 4m, and equal 8m for l=8 for l=4 for l=2.In second example, Δ L, m=m*l, wherein m is the carrier index by other component carriers (that is, except carrier wave 0) of given component carrier scheduling.That is, this skew is the every decoding candidate's of given cohesive scale the size of CCE number.Thus, for the m component carrier, offset L, mEqual m for l=1, equal 2m, equal 4m, and equal 8m for l=8 for l=4 for l=2.
Figure 13 conceptually explains orally the diagram 1300 that can stride the shared decoding candidate of all component carriers.UE can be each component carrier and keeps watch on all decoding candidates.For example, as shown in Figure 13, search volume 1302 and search volume 1304 can be on component carrier CC1, and search volume 1302 portabilities are about the DCI of CC1 or CC2, and search volume 1304 portabilities are about the DCI of CC1 or CC2.Thus, search volume 1302,1304 can be shared between two or more component carriers, and each component carrier that UE can be among component carrier CC1 and the CC2 is kept watch on all decoding candidates ( search volume 1302,1304).Carrier wave indicator field (CIF) (this CIF can be three bits) can be used in each search volume 1302,1304 receives with indication which carrier wave DCI is applicable to.Thus, in a sub-frame, the search volume portability is about two DCI of component carrier CC1 and component carrier CC2.UE can be indicated by the CIF in the search volume through which component carrier in definite these component carriers and confirm to receive which component carrier DCI is applicable to.
Figure 14 is the diagram of sharing 1400 of conceptually explaining orally the decoding candidate.Generally speaking, some search volumes can be shared between two or more component carriers, and some search volumes can be exclusively used in specific component carrier.For example; As shown in Figure 14; Search volume 1402 portabilities on the component carrier CC1 are about the DCI of component carrier CC1 or component carrier CC2; Search volume 1404 can be exclusively used in the DCI that carries about component carrier CC3; Search volume 1406 portabilities on the component carrier CC2 are about the DCI of component carrier CC1 or component carrier CC2, and search volume 1408 portabilities on the component carrier CC4 are about the DCI of component carrier CC4, and the search volume on the component carrier CC5 1410 can be exclusively used in the DCI that carries about component carrier CC5.
Figure 15 is about being used for the flow chart 1500 because of the wireless communications method of the different search volume of UE that LTE-A strides the carrier Control signaling.This method receives the configuration (1502) that is used to utilize a plurality of carrier waves.In addition, this method confirms to be used on the carrier wave in these a plurality of carrier waves to obtain the PDCCH candidate collection (1504) about the DCI of at least one carrier wave of these a plurality of carrier waves.PDCCH candidate's number is the function (1504) of the carrier number of this at least one carrier wave.In a configuration, this method is searched for DCI in this carrier wave.In a configuration, the maximum of PDCCH candidate's number increases based on the carrier number of this at least one carrier wave linearly.In a configuration, PDCCH candidate's number still is the function of CCE cohesive scale.In a configuration, in order to confirm this PDCCH candidate collection, this method confirms that at least one is used to obtain the search volume of DCI.The PDCCH candidate is in this at least one search volume.In a configuration, the number of this at least one search volume is based on the carrier number of this at least one carrier wave.In a configuration, the number of this at least one search volume increases based on the carrier number of this at least one carrier wave linearly.In a configuration, based on initial CCE because of this at least one search volume on the number of available CCE on the different ID of UE, this at least one carrier wave or at least one this carrier wave that comes to derive randomly in the CCE cohesive scale.In a configuration, this at least one search volume comprises first search volume, and this method also confirms to be used on second carrier wave to obtain second search volume about the DCI of one or more carrier waves of these a plurality of carrier waves.A side-play amount each other squints for this first search volume and second search volume.In a configuration, each search volume of each CCE cohesive scale has n CCE and these search volumes overlap each other or part overlaps, so that the absolute value that should squint is less than n.In a configuration, this skew is the multiple that comprises the CCE cohesive scale of PDCCH candidate's search volume.In a configuration, with statically, dispose this skew through semi-static ground of radio resource control (RRC) signaling or mode one of dynamically.In a configuration; At least one search volume in these search volumes is shared between at least two carrier waves, and this method is also kept watch on this at least one search volume in these search volumes is applicable to any one carrier wave at least two carrier waves in these a plurality of carrier waves with supervision DCI.
